To answer this question, we need to understand the maximum limit for job execution in a Mainframe.
In a Mainframe system, the maximum limit for a job execution is typically determined by the maximum value that can be represented by a signed 32-bit integer. This value is 2,147,483,647.
To calculate the maximum time a job can be executed continuously, we need to convert this value from seconds to days. There are 86,400 seconds in a day (24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds).
Maximum time = 2,147,483,647 seconds / 86,400 seconds per day
Simplifying the calculation, we find that the maximum time a job can be executed continuously is approximately 24,855.82 days.
Among the given options:
A. 248 Days - This option is incorrect because it is much lower than the maximum limit of approximately 24,855.82 days.
B. 250 Days - This option is incorrect because it is much lower than the maximum limit of approximately 24,855.82 days.
C. 252 Days - This option is incorrect because it is much lower than the maximum limit of approximately 24,855.82 days.
D. 258 Days - This option is incorrect because it is much lower than the maximum limit of approximately 24,855.82 days.
Therefore, the correct answer is A) 248 Days.
